For the specific objective ‘enabling regions and people to address the social, employment, economic and environmental impacts of the transition towards the Union’s 2030 targets for energy and climate and a climate-neutral economy of the Union by 2050, based on the Paris Agreement’ supported by the JTF, intervention fields under any policy objectives may be used, provided they are consistent with Articles 8 and 9 of the JTF Regulation and are in accordance with the relevant territorial just transition plan. For that specific objective, the coefficient for the calculation of support to climate change objectives is set at 100 % for all intervention fields used.

OJ L 315 14.11.2012, p. 1
), or the existing infrastructure is refurbished to meet the definition of the efficient district heating and cooling, or the project is an advanced pilot system (control and energy management systems, Internet of Things) or leads to a lower temperature regime in the district heating and cooling system.
(
17

ANNEX IX
Communication and visibility – Articles 47, 49 and 50
1.
The use and technical characteristics of the emblem of the Union (‘the emblem’)
1.1.
The emblem shall be prominently featured on all communication materials such as printed or digital products, websites and their mobile views relating to the implementation of an operation, used for the public or for participants.
1.2.
The statement ‘Funded by the European Union’ or ‘Co-funded by the European Union’ shall be written in full and placed next to the emblem.
1.3.
The typeface to be used in conjunction with the emblem may be any of the following fonts: Arial, Auto, Calibri, Garamond, Trebuchet, Tahoma, Verdana or Ubuntu. Italic, underlined variations or font effects shall not be used.
1.4.
The positioning of the text in relation to the emblem shall not interfere with the emblem in any way.
1.5.
The font size used shall be proportionate to the size of the emblem.
1.6.
The colour of the font shall be reflex blue, black or white depending on the background.
1.7.
The emblem shall not be modified or merged with any other graphic elements or texts. If other logos are displayed in addition to the emblem, the emblem shall have at least the same size, measured in height or width, as the biggest of the other logos. Apart from the emblem, no other visual identity or logo must be used to highlight the support from the Union.
1.8.
Where several operations are taking place at the same location, supported by the same or different funding instruments, or where further funding is provided for the same operation at a later date, at least one plaque or billboard shall be displayed.
1.9.
Graphic standards for the emblem and the definition of standard colours:
(A)
SYMBOLIC DESCRIPTION
Against a background of blue sky, twelve golden stars form a circle representing the union of the peoples of Europe. The number of stars is fixed, twelve being the symbol of perfection and unity.
(B)
HERALDIC DESCRIPTION
On an azure field a circle of twelve golden mullets, their points not touching.
(C)
GEOMETRIC DESCRIPTION
The emblem has the form of a blue rectangular flag of which the fly is one and a half times the length of the hoist. Twelve gold stars situated at equal intervals form an invisible circle whose centre is the point of intersection of the diagonals of the rectangle. The radius of the circle is equal to one third of the height of the hoist. Each of the stars has five points which are situated on the circumference of an invisible circle whose radius is equal to one eighteenth of the height of the hoist. All the stars are upright, i.e. with one point vertical and two points in a straight line at right angles to the mast. The circle is arranged so that the stars appear in the position of the hours on the face of a clock. Their number is invariable.
(D)
REGULATION COLOURS
The emblem is in the following colours: PANTONE REFLEX BLUE for the surface of the rectangle; PANTONE YELLOW for the stars
(E)
FOUR-COLOUR PROCESS
If the four-colour process is used, recreate the two standard colours by using the four colours of the four-colour process.
PANTONE YELLOW is obtained by using 100 % ‘Process Yellow’.
PANTONE REFLEX BLUE is obtained by mixing 100 % ‘Process Cyan’ and 80 % ‘Process Magenta’.
INTERNET
PANTONE REFLEX BLUE corresponds in the web-palette colour RGB:0/51/153 (hexadecimal: 003399) and PANTONE YELLOW corresponds in the web-palette colour RGB: 255/204/0 (hexadecimal: FFCC00).
MONOCHROME REPRODUCTION PROCESS
Using black, outline the rectangle in black and print the stars in black on white.
Using blue (Reflex Blue), use 100 % with the stars reproduced in negative white.
REPRODUCTION ON A COLOURED BACKGROUND
If there is no alternative to a coloured background, put a white border around the rectangle, the width of the border being 1/25th of the height of the rectangle.
The principles of the use of the Union emblem by third parties are set out in the Administrative agreement with the Council of Europe regarding the use of the European emblem by third parties
